Fro s{reet d s Elm Schreyer Store Co. Mi^. on § Our Country*" v Sjjj a CORRESPONDENCE 1 Written cxprcssely for THE INTELLIGENCER >3[ By our Rural Friends. BCIIUYLER. MR. EDITOR:—The storm of last Saturday did considerable damage in blowing fences, fodder, Ac., down. The wind seemed togo in streaks as shown by the fact, that no mischief was done in some parts of the neigh borhood and nenr by whole fields of fodder would be scattered every where. Lightning Btrtiek si barn be longing to lien. Savidge and glancing to the hog pen it killed one of his best hogs without doing any other dam age. The S. IS. & B. li. R. had a wreck on Friday of last week just ♦vest of the crossing at Schuyler. It way caused by the spreading of the rails. Three or four cars were de railed and some of the trucks were twisted loose. The passenger train was delayed about three hours before the track was cleared and repaired. For bad weather October certainly takes the cake. If it is not raining it is very cloudy and threatening. The farmers are handicapped in their work and many are far back with their corn husking. Some have fin ished and the work is in all stages of completion. On Tuesilay morning the roofs of the buildings were partially whitened with the snow that fell during the night. The meeting held at Grange Hall, California, on Monday night was fairly well attended. Candidate Mc lleury was not present, which was a disappointment to those present. Messrs. Wclliver, Welsh and Am merman were the speakers. Mr. Am merman held his audience for up waids an hour while he dwelt upon the fraud and corruption prevailing in the several departments of the State Government, and of the glittering promises made by the niachiue in its platforms for years, only to be broken when again entrusted with power by the deceived people of the State. He also dwelt upou the importance of every voter, favorable to a change, to attend the election on next Tuesday and voting for the Fusion ticket, so that it be elected to give Berry the necessary aid in probing the graft in the Capitol "steal." If the machine elects its ticket we will never get at the bottom of it, because its candidate for Auditor General was the attorney for the Building Commission and will last person to permit access to the records of his office, the only source from which the information so necessary to establish the case against the "grafters" must come. He will not investigate himself, you can be sure. The only thing to do is to down the whole brood of grafters, boodlers, and corruptionists by our votes uext Tuesday. Let every honest voter turn out and when he sees a grafter's head hit it a good solid blow and smash him. If the machine is beaten now it means millions of money saved to the taxpayers of the State. That the state is the richest in the Union is no excuse for the extravagant use of the money of the people. We want an antimachine legislature, too, to enact legislation to change many sys -1 terns now in vogue, particularly a new election law abolishing the party i square. The present method of vot ing was made complicated to make it . | difficult to vote and so the voter , j would mark the ballot with a mark iu , 1 the square for fear of vitiating his j ballot by marking after each candidate Couch Specials. 25.00 Adjustacle End Conch, 21.00, covered with plush, has steel springs and claw feet. 25.00 Adjustable end Couch, 18.00, same construction but upholstered in plain moroon. 2«) (X) Couch, 15.00, upholstered with fancy green velour.

We want a simplified system so that any voter may mark his bal lot so as to fully express his choice without the fear of making a mistake, aud right here we will have an ex ample of the danger of voters forget ting to mark their ballots correctly in the matter of the Judgeship. The names of the democratic candidates will appear in a separate column from the regular Democratic column, and if voters do not turn to that and mark their choice they will not vote for the Judge nt all. Kemcuibcr that when you goto the polls next Tuesday and see that you get iu your vote for Judge. A straight vote, by marking a cross opposite the word "Demo cratic" on the ballot will not vote for Judge. Don't forget that. We want, too, a new system of taxation. Farm ers and other holdeis of real estate except railroads, Ac., pay from 15 to 18 mills taxes while the latter pay about 3J. We must change the legis lature to get redress from this great wrong. We also wants trolleys to carry freight to bring about competi tion with the railroads and express companies to rid ourselves of the in fernal charges we must pay to have small packages delivered to us, charges that often exceed the first cost of the goods. And there are other matters that need changing aud we can ouly get this by sending a new set of men to llarrlsburg this year. Hence the importance of every man who desires this going to the polls next Tuesday and registering his vote and seeing that his neighbor gets there too. Don't stay away and then find fault because things did not go your way of think ing. Go and show your sincerity, even if you have corn to husk or any thing else. Lay everything aside for a few hours, as you only have the chanoe one day in the year. I trust I have said enough upou this subject, and hope 011 Wednesday to hear that lteforui has won a great victory iu the State, and county. Oct. 30, 1900. BILL.

[!0 INSURANCE IF CAPITOL BURNED Grafters Strove tz Hide Underwriters' Demend For Costly Tearing Out of "Extras'' Beforo Adjust in" Rate. Every time the hysterical "Advisory Committee" which is hacking Penrose and Andrews "ch?Jlcnges" State Treas urer Berry to take somebody Into court, Berry Just goes &h<-ad aud makes some now exposure of the capl tol graft. While Berry has been thuf employed, other probers have dug up things of which he did not seem to be Aware. For instance, it now appeart thut the board of flro underwriters ol the middle department have declined to nnme a premium rate on the new $ 13,000,000 palace until many costly changes shall be made la the electri cal installation, which has been do clared faulty by the insurance inspec tors. It is startling enough to hear thai the luxurious capitol cannot be insured at present, and that pending settle ment of the exlsUug trouble with the underwriters, If the buildlug burned down the state would be at a dead lost of not only all the millions that may have been honestly put into the gor geous pile, but also, probably, of most of the tangible evidence upon which It is hoped to have the grafters convict ed and compelled to disgorge by a genuine investigating committee ap pointed by an honest legislature. Isn't it a comforting thought to the voters that the $2,000,000 chandeliers the $1,500,000 filing cabinets, the mil lion dollars' worth of chairs, tables, sofas and carpets, etc., are without any protection in case of fire? Instead ol taking immediate steps to rectify the conditions which have been condemn ed by the fire underwriters, the build ing and grounds commissioners, who include Governor Pennypaeker and Auditor General Snyder, are evidently waiting until after the election. It is now an open secret that the gang grafters hoped least thLs lea ture of the vast scheme of plunder would not be uncovered before No vember 6. Overwhelmed by the storm of protests which has been raging throughout the state since the dis closures of Berry wore first made pub lic, caution has been counseled lest any steps that might be taken toward adjusting the defects should ad<l to the fury of the tempest. It is strongly in timated in insurance circles that the requisite changes in the electrical sys tern will be very costly—the estimate varying from a quarter of a million to a half million dollars. Fear Wires Would Melt. At the general offices of the under writers, on Walnut street, Philadel phia, it is admitted that their inspec tors declined to pass favorably upon tho completed work, and that no rate j on the building has been adjusted. An swers to queries made to men famil iar with the electrical work in the cap itol indicate t»hat several thousand more lights than were originally pro vided for in the specifications, have been putin the building, on account of the unnecessarily huge size and weight, not to speak of the amazing number, of the $4-a-pound chandeliers. Consequently it appears that the wires are not sufficient to carry the needed current without danger ff melting and setting fire to the building. In other words, the causo of the hold-up ap pears to be the Installation of wires that are too small and must be torn out. ' Men aware of the real facts are very cautious in talking, and say that what ever they have to disclose will bo re served for the anticipated legislative Investigating committee. But they hint at the great loss that this tearing out may mean. As the wire® run in conduits through the ceilings, the Job ©f putting in larger wire, if that is what is required, will be enormous. In many places the walls, decorated at great a&d the ceilings, cov ered with expensive gold lea/, will fcave to be opened. The heavy chande liers, many of them weighing tons, may have to be taken down, and the cost of the entire labor involved may therefore be estimated at a staggering figure. Not only would the electrical contractors be called upon to do extra work, but plasterers, decorators, paint ers, gilders, etc., will also have a finger Ifc the pie which is stfll to be cut While Berry is going on with the analysis of the "overcharges," which he estimates as amounting to half of the sfr,ooo,ooo for "extras," ex-State Treasurer Mathues, as if panic-strick en like the rest of the Penrose outfit, mokes an extremely lame effort to ex plain away the fact that between the time of Berry'B election and his taking charge of the treasury, there was such an awful rush of payments of bills to the capitol grafters that settlement* aggregating nearly three and a hali millions were made with them during that period. Mathues, as treasurer, paid out all that money. The hustling Indicated that the gang were afraid that after Berry got in, it would no! take him long to find out the graft and call a halt on the payments. It haa been shown by recent events that the foresight of the gang was excellent, and yet it is hard to reconcile it with the evident belief prevailing last sum mer and into September that the cat would not get out of the bag before the election. Perhaps that , false sense of security wse due in some measure to the fact that Borry, as he admits, waa fooled by the "smooth fellows" on the first bill that reached him—the one for the $90,000 balance on "parquetry," but after that Mr. Berry got "wise." But Mathues makes a poor fist of it by saying that "Berry is liable to do anything. He lied about the treasury in saying that he found the books in chaos, and therefore nothing that he says now surprises me>." Mathues may be half right it he means that the pub lic has already learned so much that It would not be surprised to find out that Berry is too low In his estimate of the total graft OABTOniA. Bean the _/) Tto Kind You Have Always Bought A man who fails to vote is wanting in civic virtue and a man who doesn't know how to mark his ticket is short on the qualifications of good citizenship.
